Passage 1
（2025·北京通州·一模）The Hedgehg’s Dilemma is a cncept that explres the tensin between the desire fr clse relatinships and the risk f emtinal harm. Schpenhauer, a German philspher, used the metaphr f hedgehgs seeking warmth n a cld winter day: they crwd tgether fr cmfrt but sn feel the pain f each ther’s quills(刺). They separate, nly t feel the cld again, eventually finding a suitable distance that allws warmth withut pain. 35 .
S that’s the thery, but what des this lk like in ur everyday lives? 36 But shuld we let these experiences blck us frm letting ur guard dwn in the future? Schpenhauer’s advice wuld prbably be “yes”. 37 . Fr example, a review, which analyzed 148 studies invlving 308,849 participants, fund that individuals with strng scial cnnectins have a 50% increased like hd f survival. Additinally, the Natinal Institute n Aging reprts that the health risks f lng-term islatin (隔离) are equivalent t smking 15 cigarettes a day.
38 Psychlgical therapist Hilary Sanders explains chat behavirs like islatin r anger can serve as survival strategies during childhd. While these defenses may prvide shrt-term prtectin, they can blck meaningful cnnectins if they persist.
In cnclusin, the natural lnging fr cnnectin drives us t seek ut meaningful relatinships, even when we knw that weakness can lead t emtinal pain. Yes, there are risks in expsing ur true selves and emtins, but unlike hedgehgs, humans dn’t cme with the quills built in. 39 S when we learn t lwer ur defences fr safe peple, there’s a chance we actually can have it all — the warmth f genuine relatinships withut the fear f being hurt.
A．Hwever, mdern research ffers a different perspective.
B．This metaphr shws the imprtance f adaptability in nature.
C．Mst f the defensive reactins riginate frm early experiences.
D．These experiences can make it difficult t trust thers in the future.
E．Many peple share stries f emtinal pain frm clse relatinships.
F．This reflects humans’ struggle t balance clseness and self-prtectin.
G．We have the capacity t chse whm we trust and hw we prtect ur selves.
Passage 2
(2025届北京市东城区高三下学期二模英语试题)After seeing nline advertising fr “Willy’s Cbclate Experience”, peple paid up t £80 each t attend. But it wasn’t as prmised: instead f wndrus creatins and an abundance f chclate, families arrived at a mstly abandned warehuse featuring a sad-lking castle.

2 Cucks lay their eggs in the nests f ther birds. The fster parents are then deceived int raising the yung f thers at the expense f their wn. Mre cmplex are cases where wild tufted capuchin mnkeys may scream as thugh a predatr (捕食者) is nearby t trick their fellw primates int running away frm fd. 3

Disinfrmatin tday is a mre cmplex versin f the false mnkey screams. The gd news is that we knw enugh abut evlutinary thinking t predict which steps bad actrs will take next. 5 We have nvel ways t trick it int evlving a weakness that we then take advantage f, a prcess called “evlutinary trapping”. Similarly, we knw smene will try t utfx the tls being develped t cunter deepfakes. We can predict what the next frm f deepfake will lk like, then prevent it.
A．Bdies cmpete with cancers.
B．We d this already with cancer.
C．They then take the fd fr themselves.
D．They becme mre intelligent with each trick.
E．We see disinfrmatin strategies amng animals, t.
F．We need t use ur understanding t make traps f ur wn.

Passage 4
(2025届北京市门头沟区高三下学期3月综合练习（一模）英语试题)Daydreaming, ften dismissed as a waste f time, is increasingly recgnized as a vital cgnitive prcess. Far frm being a sign f laziness, daydreaming allws the brain t explre ideas, slve prblems and fster creativity. Recent studies in neurscience have revealed the cmplex mechanisms behind this mental activity.
When we daydream, the brain enters a state knwn as the “default mde netwrk” (DMN). 1 This netwrk becmes active when we are nt fcused n the utside wrld, enabling the brain t prcess infrmatin, cnslidate memries and generate new ideas. Fr example, many breakthrughs in science and art have emerged frm mments f spntaneus daydreaming.
Cntrary t ppular belief, daydreaming is nt a passive activity. It requires significant mental energy and invlves cmplex neural activity. Research shws that during daydreaming, the brain engages in high-level cgnitive prcesses, such as planning, self-reflectin and emtinal regulatin. 2
Mrever, daydreaming can enhance prblem-slving abilities. By explring in the daydream, many peple can find ways t tackle the prblems. 3 By allwing the mind t wander, we can apprach challenges frm new perspectives and uncver innvative slutins.

D．Daydreaming is mst effective when cmbined with perids f intense fcus.
E．The brain’s ability t switch between fcused attentin and daydreaming is crucial.
F．It als can imprve emtinal tughness by helping us prcess difficult experiences.
G．Structured daydreaming, such as guided visualizatin, can enhance its psitive effects.
Passage 5
(2025届北京市海淀区高三下学期一模英语试题)When yu spend time with clse friends, hw d yu feel? Yu may feel like yu belng. Accrding t the Oxfrd dictinary, belnging is defined as a “deep sense f acceptance, inclusin, and identificatin within a grup, place, r cntext.” 1
Since the beginning f human evlutin, peple have cnnected with thers in rder t survive. This desire t frm and grw relatinships is rted in the human brain. 2 In 1943, Abraham Maslw was the first psychlgist t write abut belnging as a human need. His thery, the Hierarchy (等级) f Needs, states that humans must acquire their basic needs, such as physilgical (生理上的) needs and needs related t safety, befre they can begin fulfilling ther higher, mre cmplex needs, like belnging r develping self-esteem.
Anther grundbreaking research abut belnging emerged in 1995. Mark Leary and Ry Baumeister fund that humans have a universal drive t belng, which mtivates their thughts and actins. In fact, this drive is s imprtant that they argued it was a fundamental human need-nt a secndary need in a hierarchy. Their later research explred the cnnectin between self-esteem and belnging. Accrding t their research, self-esteem is nt just abut hw peple feel abut themselves internally. 3
Althugh feeling cnnected t peple is imprtant in many settings, it becmes especially critical in schls. A 2020 research analysis fund that students wh d nt feel a sense f belnging at schl are ften searching fr threats in their envirnment that signal whether they are welcme r nt. 4 This, in turn, can cause prer academic perfrmance. It can als discurage students frm frming deeper relatinships. S, a student’s feeling f belnging is vital fr their learning.
5 Researchers will cntinue t analyze hw persnality, culture, and even scial media shape hw cnnected we feel t thers. With this knwledge, peple can create schls and cmmunities where mre peple feel included. That way, we can develp a sciety that is verall healthier, happier, and mre cnnected.
A．They may d things t increase their self-esteem.
B．This stress can use up cgnitive resurces needed fr learning.
C．Belnging is a cmplex thing because it is influenced by many factrs.
D．Over the years, researchers have been explring this subjective feeling.
E．Feeling like yu belng can actually imprve many aspects f yur life.
F．It actually serves as a warning signal that measures hw much peple feel accepted.
G．When yu see yurself well suited t a specific envirnment, yu feel valued and respected.
